for new pass holders

NEW RFID TICKETING & LIFT ACCESS

If this is your first purchase and you do not already have a SKI3 Card from the 2019/20 Season, your new 2020/21 Season Pass will be encrypted onto a RFID-enabled SKI3 Card with a chip inside that tells the access gates at the lifts to open (if valid for that day). This means you can keep your Season Pass tucked away in your jacket pocket without having to present it to the lift attendants before your ride. The best part is you'll be able to reload your Season Pass onto the same SKI3 Card and use it for several years!

when should you receive your new season pass?

If you select to have your Season Pass mailed (at the time of purchase), keep an eye out for your RFID-enabled SKI3 Card to arrive by mail. Please note that processing and mailing may be delayed as we have limited staff present at the mountain during this time.

If you select Hold for Pickup at checkout when purchasing your Season Pass, head to the Ticket Office in the Main Base Lodge between 8:30 am – 4:00 pm daily (in season). Please note that in-person pick-ups are not currently available as the mountain remains closed due to COVID-19 restrictions. We are looking forward to reopening as soon as it is safe to do so and will post updates about our schedule as they become available.

for ski3 card reloads

what if you already have a ski3 card?

If you already have a SKI3 Card from the 2019/20 Season, you can reload it online, over the phone or in person at any ticket window with a 2020/21 Season Pass and enjoy the convenience of going direct-to-lift on the same card.

What can you load onto your existing ski3 card?

Most SKI3 Cards can be reloaded with a 2020/21 Season Pass, whether your SKI3 Card had a 2019/20 Season Pass, Frequent Skier Card, or Whiteface, Gore or Belleayre lift ticket loaded onto it previously. Once you reload your card with a 2020/21 Season Pass, you can go directly to the slopes on your first visit this upcoming season. Just be sure to put your SKI3 Card in a secure spot by itself (no other RFID/SKI3 Cards, phones, etc.) when you head to the lifts.
